Frame is vintage 1982-ish, c58cm, 531 tubing no dents or dings - has been powder-coated orange with genuine 531 decals etc. 700c wheels, 2 brakes with aero (cable under tape) levers, 165 cranks,
SPD pedals, Specialized BG saddle.
Has a Sturmey Archer 3 speed FIXED hub with bar end changer (also have downtube changer) - wheel/hub has only done about 400/500 miles from new.
Riding fixed is great (on a single-speed I'd ride about 67" gear) the SA hub gives some more comfortable ratios for the hills. Changing gear - everyone asks! - you just ease the pressure on the pedals and move the lever ... minimal interruption and a smooth change.
I'm only selling as I just don't ride it, other bikes in the stable!
Looking for about £200 (hub is expensive). Collect from Stratford-upon-Avon (or Redditch where it's stored at present) - or I might be persuaded to ship it at cost.
Please PM if interested
Thanks
Rob
